State Farm Giveaway!

Lisa Martin0
If you purchase something after clicking on the links in this post, I’ll probably earn a few bucks from it. We aren’t talking enough for a mansion or yacht but more like chocolate and wine. And if I mention a product, I probably got a sample and possibly a cash payment. Remember that all Thoughts, Ideas, and Ramblings are 100% my own and may not represent your experience.

This giveaway is now over.  The winner is Shawna O and Cori Westphal.  Congrats!

Go take a peak outside in your garage. Is it embarrassing? Is it everything you could hope it could be? I'm going to guess it's not. I know mine isn't. I think we are even storing mattresses in mine! I'd be embarrassed if any of you wanted to see my garage! State Farm knows our pain and wants to do something about it! (I know, how cool is that?)

If you are in Chicago (like I am), make sure you check out the Chicago Auto Show from February 11 – February 20, 2011, and explore the State Farm Garage! This will inspire car owners everywhere to transform their ordinary, cluttered garage into something that represents who they are and can call their own. At the State Farm Garage, you will also have the opportunity to enter the Garage Makeover Sweepstakes for a chance to win a brand new garage valued at $35,000. (Can you say dream garage?)  The garage will have fun activities for parents and kids – there are games and prizes – and there will also be an athlete appearance.

Now, I can't do as good as $35,000, but I have arranged for 2 (aff) lucky winners to win (one winner wins the gas card, the other the Lowe's card):

– (1) $50 gas card
– (1) $100 Lowe’s gift card

Excited? I know I am! Here's what you need to do:
